Opening and purification of carbon nanotubes in high yields

Hiura, Hidefumi, Ebbesen, Thomas W., Tanigaki, Katsumi·1995·Advanced Materials

Abstract

Gram‐quantities of pure carbon nanotubes (see Figure) can be produced using a new method reported here. The nanotubes, which can be thought of as cylindrical graphitic microcrystals, are opened and purified by treating them with a mixtue of sulfuric acid and potassium permanganate. The opening of the nanotubes on a large scale is also of interest in terms of filling the tubes with interesting guest molecules. magnified image

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
